People power exceptional experiences

A people-first culture across the globe

Across the world, conversations about work are shifting. Organisations are paying closer attention to how culture shapes performance, how wellbeing influences long term resilience and how purpose helps people stay connected to their work. At Huntswood, these themes have become central to how we think about the employee experience and what it means to build a healthy, sustainable organisation.

Creating the conditions for people to thrive

Employee experience is no longer measured only by engagement scores or benefits packages. It is shaped by the quality of leadership, the clarity of expectations and the moments that define how people feel respected and supported at work. Our approach draws on the principles of servant leadership, with an emphasis on listening, shared accountability and the belief that culture is built through everyday interactions rather than isolated initiatives.

Purpose and belonging

A sense of purpose has become an important driver of engagement for many people. We continue to explore ways for colleagues to connect their work to a wider mission, whether through inclusion programmes, networks that elevate underrepresented voices or recognition that highlights the contributions that matter most to individuals. These efforts aim to strengthen belonging, not through slogans but through opportunities to participate and be heard.

Supporting wellbeing in a changing world

Wellbeing is increasingly viewed as a strategic priority. The pressures facing employees vary by region and role, so our approach focuses on giving people access to what they need to stay healthy and supported. This includes physical, mental and financial wellbeing resources, along with targeted programmes across geographies and regular campaigns that encourage people to pause, reflect and check in with themselves and others.

Designing meaningful employee experiences

A positive employee experience comes from a blend of structure, transparency and human connection. Our work in this space spans environmental and social commitments, community partnerships and clear career pathways that help colleagues understand where they can grow. Recognition programmes and shared celebrations reinforce the values that shape our culture, while development opportunities give people the tools to progress in ways that feel authentic to them.

Listening and learning

Continuous feedback is essential for understanding how our culture is evolving. Survey insights and day to day feedback mechanisms help us identify what is working well and where we need to focus next. External accreditations, such as Great Place to Work recognition in the UK and India, provide valuable perspective and help us benchmark our progress.

Extending our impact beyond the workplace

Colleagues across our global locations play an active role in their communities. The initiatives vary, from sustainability activities and education partnerships to wellbeing campaigns and programmes that support vulnerable groups. What connects these activities is a shared belief that positive impact extends beyond organisational boundaries and contributes to a broader sense of purpose.

A culture shaped by people

Culture is never finished. It evolves through the choices people make, the conversations they have and the way they show up for one another. At Huntswood, our aim is to build an environment where wellbeing, purpose and growth are part of the everyday experience. When people feel supported and encouraged to succeed, the whole organisation benefits.
